The following thread will explain how we set up the Toyota 5S-FE Timing Belt marks when replacing the timing belt. We set the timing marks in place with the engine at TDC.
These first marks are where you want to line up the crank pulley at TDC....
Now when you take the crank pulley and last timing belt cover off, you will see the crankshaft TDC marks here....
and a close up pic without the arrows.....
Now let's look at the timing marks for the camshaft pulley.....
When lining up the cam timing marks, you will see a small hole in the cam gear that lines up with a small notch just behind it. At TDC, you should be able to see the notch through the hole...
Well that about wraps this one up. This post was just designed to show you how we did this job lining up the timing belt marks. Please consult a Toyota Dealer and/or the Toyota repair website www.techinfo.toyota.com for more information.
